  • I just picked up Romance of the Three Kingdoms IX, this one is WAY WAY WAY different then any of the past titles, I'm having a hard time getting into it. BL still around?

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>Bah. I would, but my PS2 is very picky nowadays about what it plays. Hell, it might have died of neglect for all I know. Haven't touched it in two months.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>There up to part 9?!?! I got 3 and then 4, then I haven't really payed attention to Koei since then. They're not a very diverse company. Seriously, if they were more creative they could have taken their Uncharted Waters series and made it into my favourite game ever =)</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Don't even get me started on my recommendations to DMA, their company name, and their Grand Theft Auto series.

The only thing is, KOEI is not very intelligent, and that's why they've never been, and never will be, a very profitable company. I mean seriously, Romance of the Three Kingdoms 3, the guy seems to have just said "Hey, lets tweek the game a bit by tripleing the amount of bows and horses normally produced in the game, we'll give the box a new label and call it Romance of the three Kingdoms part 4!! We'll sell hundreds! I can't imagine the later versions are that much different.</div>
